Product Function
• Energy production: It is involved in sugar and acid metabolism, providing energy to muscle tissues, brain cells, and the central nervous system. L-Alanine is primarily synthesized in muscle cells from lactic acid, and the conversion between lactic acid and L-Alanine in the muscle is an important part of the body's energy metabolism process.
• Amino acid metabolism: It is integral to the amino acid metabolism in the blood, along with L-glutamine. It participates in the synthesis and breakdown of proteins, helping to maintain the balance of amino acids in the body.
• Immune system support: L-Alanine can boost the immune system, helping the body defend against diseases and infections. It also has a role in reducing inflammation, which is beneficial for overall immune health.
• Prostate health: It may play a role in protecting the prostate gland, although more research is needed to fully understand this aspect.
Application
• In the food industry:
• Flavor enhancer: It is used as a flavor enhancer and sweetener in various foods such as bread, meats, malted barley, roasted coffee, and maple syrup. It can improve the taste and flavor of food, making it more appealing to consumers.
• Food preservative: It can act as a food preservative, helping to extend the shelf life of food products by inhibiting the growth of bacteria and other microorganisms.
• In the beverage industry: It can be used as a nutritional supplement and sweetener in beverages, providing additional nutritional value and improving the taste.
• In the pharmaceutical industry: It is used in clinical nutrition and as an ingredient in some pharmaceutical products. For example, it may be used in the treatment of certain diseases or as a supplement in medical therapies.
• In the cosmetics and personal care industry: It is used as a fragrance ingredient, hair conditioning agent, and skin-conditioning agent in cosmetic and personal care products, helping to improve the texture and performance of these products.
• In the agriculture and animal feed industry: It can be used as a nutritional supplement and sour corrective agent in animal feed, providing essential amino acids for animals and improving the nutritional value of feed.
• In other industries: It is widely used as an intermediate in the synthesis of various organic chemicals, such as dyes, flavors, and pharmaceutical intermediates.
